Get the codes checked somewhere.
Come back and well tell you whats up.
The coolant sensor is known to corrode and set the light off. Its just a light...
Unplug or replace the sensor.

yeah so i just checked the codes and nothing came up so it must be a bad sensor or something but i thought that if it was a sensor then it would show up on the computer?
also i cant seem to figure out this damn annoying "bird chirping noise" coming from the pulley area.. i took some degreaser to it but it didnt do anything.. the noise starts immediatly when the car starts and even goes louder when im driving.. any guesses to what it could be?
on a good note my " check engine soon" light went away!

It will store a code for the light. Originally Posted by -Hot Sause-

The chirping noise is a idler pulley or a tensioner most likely. Take off the belts and spin each by hand and listen.
